Congratulations to Liberty Hill, definitely played with emotion and a great plan. There offense is so unique it may be enough to win state next week. To Crosby, it hurts now but you had another outstanding year. You are putting your name in statewide contention with the Jaspers, Marts, La Vega s, Westfields, and the like. Have a great Christmas break and start working for next year👍🏻🐻✝️

Jaspers and Westfields??????

Took my first look at SOC.  Only loss to 6A Duncanville.  They look unbeatable in 5A-D2.  LH on the other hand, lost to 4A LBJ, so the only chance I see is their offense.  The question seems even more legitimate the more I look.  Just looking at Crosby vs LH, Crosby looked the winner, as you said, but LH pulled it off.  It’ll take a super effort against SOC, but…….. not even sure that’ll do it.  If SOC can defend the LH offense, this game will get real ugly, real early.

Agreed. SOC is quite possibly the best 5A team I’ve ever seen. Their D line looks like the Alabama D line

I suspect that’s because so many locals know Crosby has trouble with the Slot T.

Defense did okay though, but when the other side of the ball struggles and just never got anything going you can’t expect them to hold up. They won the turnover battle also.  You turn it over and the two times they put it in the turf they got it back.  Just wasn’t Crosby’s night.

SOC is very very good but they can be beat. We were pretty injured and almost beat them. Need excellent defense and need to be able to run the ball.

LH's smaller lineman using quick angle blocking techniques can really offset the size differential . The more athletic teams tend to over pursue when defending the slot-T and that's the one of the things that LH has going for them, the other being HEART. The odds are stacked against them when facing SOC but I guarantee they come to play like they always do.

Isn’t this their first deep run in the playoffs in quite awhile? Hard to be a Mecca with a mediocre resume.

What has the last 20 years been for SOC? By the way, I am not LH. Just enjoying an arrogant fan base suffering from a loss to a team that they are really struggling losing too!!

Crosby has never lost a regional final game in our school’s history but I’ve been fortunate enough watch us lose in the five other rounds. I tell you what, that semifinal crying is different. You can feel that stop at Buccee’s in Madisonville within grasp. 
 

Not that I expect Crosby to be playing for a state championship every year but it was pretty surreal waking up this morning and not making hotel reservations in Dallas.

Try being a player. My senior year we lost to Copperas Cove in the semifinals. It's rough. At least if you made it to state yall had a chance. But to lose the game before....... Hits hard.

By saying the better team won last night, the one that made more plays.  That’s struggling???

I’m guessing you got a dose of RG III then.

Well didn’t want to put Katy or North Shore or WOS because they are still a different class with state championships so I just named consistency in playoffs, Jaspers definitely above but didn’t edit or think- just wrote. Crosby is deserving of excellent playoff company. 👍🏻🐻✝️

I think the Panthers style of play has the best chance against SOC, although that chance is slim. I think they can at least keep the score more respectable than a team with a  modern style of play would . Having to prepare all week for unusual style of play can sometimes break a teams rhythm . Long sustained drives by the opponent that keeps your offense on the sideline can also break rhythm.

    • No doubt. It's definitely intriguing enough to watch how this all plays out...
    • We all know that each state has its own laws which can be very different, especially in endeavors like annexation or incorporation, so there is no telling what Louisiana law says. I don’t know but I doubt that there is a point of appeal for Baton Rouge to force St. George to be absorbed back into Baton Rouge by now giving them what they asked for years ago. “Oh, we lost? Well let’s just undo incorporation, ruled as legal by the Supreme Court (of LA)  by going back and giving them what they asked for”. There has to be a law allowing such an appeal. I think what I read about the lower court decisions which actually backed up Baton Rouge, they did not all rule that incorporation was illegal but that they did not think the city could have services up and running soon enough. So you have a court saying that sure you can split but only if we agree that you can provide services get enough. In Louisiana, who knows? I doubt that Texas has such a mechanism to allow a city to split, for example, could the west end of Beaumont say that they wish to make their own city against Beaumont’s objection? I doubt it. Certainly Beaumont could allow a city to be created as Port Arthur did with Bridge City and Taylor’s Landing. There is a huge difference in allowing and forcing which is what happened in Baton Rouge. Similar to the sometime discussed topic of Texas splitting off from the United States because they don’t like the way things are going, think if citizens in any city in the United States were allowed to create their own city, which could not be stopped by the parent city.  That could get interesting!! Don't like what is happening in the south side of Chicago? Just de-annex and create your own city!! Anyway, I thought that it is an interesting story when the capital city splits in half.   
    • Wasn't that 1st round loss last year? Also, during those previous 10 years I am pretty sure Jasper didn't go 2-58 in district play in the other 5 sports.
    • Ma'am, I don't think he said all Muslims were like that. If I'm reading this right, he's referencing the terrorist Muslims. You know, the ones who commit murder & have no regard for anyone who doesn't follow their jihadist beliefs...
    • Great playoff run, no doubt.  They did make the 3rd round(1 less) 4 of the previous 10 years, only one first round loss. 6 district championships and 4 second place.  The only 4 years Carthage was in the same district. So no, I'm not sure it does make sense.
